[Purpose] We investigated the efficacy of constraint-induced (CI) movement therapy for stroke patientsliving at home and attending a day-care center. [Subjects] The subjects were 6 post-stroke patients fulfilling a suitablestandard who received rehabilitation for upper extremity hemiparesis at our hospital’s day-care center. [Method] Withthe upper limb of the non-paralyzed side constrained, the arm of the paralyzed side received intensive achievement taskintervention 5 h per day for 2 weeks (10 weekdays in total). The assessment items, the Wolf Motor Function Test(WMFT), Motor Activity Log (MAL) and the Fugl-Meyer assessment scale (FM), were performed pre- and post-CItherapy, and at 3 and 6 months after CI therapy. [Results] Significant improvements in WFMT time and MAL werefound post-intervention. Also, the efficacy of the intervention was maintained at 3 and 6 months post-intervention inall of the cases we could evaluate. [Conclusion] The results suggest, that CI therapy performable in general proceduresof out-patient rehabilitation improved upper limb function and raised limb functionality.
